Yes the bush was well and truly stuck, it pulled out in the end though. all greased up with marine grease now.
 and it looks like a new chain is next.
 
the eagle eyed amongst you will spot the previous owners attempt at lowering the bike with flat bar.

Guy on another forum gave link to this place. I have not dealt personally with them, but at these prices, what's to lose?  http://www.banggood....hts-c-2107.html

Scottoiler installation  finally completed, and I got my first ride of the year in. :badgerrock:

 

 

Got home with a big grin, and a light sheen of oil on me chain. :good:

I hated the grey on the Givi's soooo, do it all again.. Plus some new bolts as OEM were a little short, also remade the mounts for the new bolts :) This time I am happy.

That looks like a tool tube mounted on the crash bar.  Is that right?  Any other pics of how it's mounted?

It is mate, its mounted to the hole in the engine casting, a small alloy L bracket and two bolts, very simple, will post a pic for you asap, then crudely two zip ties as seen round the "odd" givi strap/plastic whatever they are supposed to be mounts, never known what Givi intended them for but they clamp onto the crash bars, my guess was maybe to strap stuff too?? I keep some zip ties, bungee cords and maybe a snack/drink in the tube, its very handy! Cost £20.00 I think all in from the USA on eBay :)

 

 

Lots to choose from :)

A picture would be great if you get the time.  One of those would be perfect for the longer trips.  It would free up some space in the panniers and top box from thos tools.  Room for more whiskey! :good:

My bling home made carbon grip controller mount and PC3 multi map switch, I have a map for best MPG (IN) and best power (OUT) or Baffle IN and Baffle OUT what ever I want to load up :)

If anybody is interested in those tool tubes listed on EBay . . .

 

Agrisupply is the original vendor for those tool tubes:  http://www.agrisuppl...-large/p/67670/

 

And the cost from Agrisupply?? $5 (3.25 pounds for you in the UK).  They became so popular, that people starting buying them and reselling them on Ebay and elsewhere for a huge markup.  Not sure what they would charge you to ship, but worth checking.
